Jesse Mustoe was born 1897 at Awre, his parents being Arthur and Harriet Mustoe. Jesse had one sister Beatrice Annie Mustoe, who is my maternal grandmother. The family later lived at Plump Hill, Mitcheldean and Jesse served in the Army in WWI, probably with the Gloucesters. Jesse disappeared in the 1920's and made no contact with his family much to the distress of his mother and sister and was rumoured to have emigrated to Australia. I would be grateful if anyone has a shred of info which might help to resolve this mystery.
